What to do if “Err” flashes and there is no signal change at the switching output for object detection for SICK Accessories?

  If the "Err" flashes, the Q LED and TCH LED are yellow, and there's no signal change at the switching output for object detection with your SICK Accessories, it typically means the programmed contrast or contrast difference isn't sufficient for stable contrast detection. Try these steps: * Readjust the sensor. * Clean the sensor. * Check the application conditions. * Restart the teach process. * Increase the contrast difference.

  If you no longer have a switching output from your SICK Accessories, consider the following possible causes: * Inconsistent distance or angle to the material: Clean the sensor. * Dirty light emission (optics): Readjust the sensor. * Incorrect manual switching threshold: Check the parameter settings or perform the teach process again.

How to fix “Err” flashing and Q LED (yellow) flashing on SICK Accessories?

  If the “Err” is flashing and the Q LED (yellow) is flashing on your SICK Accessories, this could indicate a short-circuit or overcurrent message. Try disconnecting the sensor from the power network. It could also mean the sensor isn't connected properly, so check the pin assignment and reconnect the sensor. Also, check the current at the switching output.

  If there's no change to the segment display in Mounting feedback mode for your SICK Accessories, the distance between the sensor and the background might be too large or too small, so clean the sensor. The light emission (optics) might also be dirty, so check the application conditions. You can also try restarting the adjustment process.

  If the “Err” flashes and the Q LED (yellow) flashes on your SICK Accessories, it could be due to a short-circuit or overcurrent. Try disconnecting the sensor from the power network. Alternatively, the sensor might not be connected properly, so check the pin assignment and reconnect the sensor. You may also need to check the current at the switching output.
